>>what “Great Magic of Azuth” did that god hide away at Mystra’s command, why, and what has become of it since the Spellplague loosed it into the world again."

This MAY have been answered since February. When did Erin release her last book. Just noting his staff was "discovered" in Abeir.

The Staff cannot be, because the staff was not hidden by Azuth. The Staff was stolen by servants of Cyric and Shar and used to "kill" Mystra; this is related in the Empyrean Odyssey novels. Then, it was stolen again, this time by servants of Asmodeus, who gave it to Bryseis Kakistos and the Toril Thirteen (the 13 most powerful fiend-patron warlocks of the time) to create the tiefling bloodline curse: all tieflings born in Toril after the ritual was cast—and until the Sundering, I presume—were born tied to Asmodeus regardless of their parents and bloodlines. That is why all tieflings in 4e and almost all tieflings in 5e have the same appearance and abilities: all are part of the tiefling bloodline of Asmodeus (the standard tiefling sub-race in 5e), as all are tied with the curse.

Feeling betrayed because Asmodeus basically doomed the race—it did not, but she felt that way—, Bryseis Kakistos then ordered Caisys the Vicelord (one of the Thirteen) to hide the staff in Abeir (as related in the Devil You Know).

My point is that the Staff was hidden in Abeir for circumstances different than "Mystra asked Azuth to hide it". Whatever Mystra asked to hide, it was not the Staff.

In my Realms, after the Spellplague jarred loose a bunch of magical bindings, the Fraternity of Tharos managed to cast a ritual magic tied into the demoncysts that dot the lands of the Easting Reach to make tiefling births near a demoncyst have a chance of reflecting a demonic progenitor. All "Asmodeus spawn" were killed at birth.

Wow, that is cruel. However, is something logical as well. If a "devilish" child is born in a normal community, common sense is that this child will die unless is lucky.

In a similar but different way, there were some exiled Thayans who started buying up these "Asmodeus spawn" at birth or even after death. The idea of figuring out the magic involved to make them "breed true" is of particular interest to the "Mulans are the best breed of humans" red wizards.

There's still more to that statue, I think. I wonder if it is actually a former sentient being, some servant of Mystra rendered into and left in stone form, for some reason.
